This is a good idea. It will allow me to use ReflectionClass->getDocComment() It does require the constant name to be present @vanity CONSTANT_NAME LONG_NAME,SHORT_NAME,HUMAN_NAME I've implemented this and it is working. I've @todo'd it to refactor if PHP has a ReflectionConstant class at some stage in the future.
